Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A method of reprinting content on a print medium using a mobile telecommunications device, comprising the steps of: providing a first print medium comprising content and first coded data in a format of a linear data track, said first coded data identifying a first print media identifier; determining the first print media identifier, from the first print medium, using a sensor module of the mobile telecommunications device, the first print medium having been inserted into a media feed path of the mobile telecommunications device; retrieving a copy of the content, previously stored in a database, using the first print media identifier; printing the copy of the content on a second print medium using a printer module of the mobile telecommunications device, said second print medium being provided with second coded data in a format of a two-dimensional coordinate grid contiguously tiled across a surface the second print medium, said second coded data identifying a second print media identifier; creating an association between the content and the second print media identifier; and, storing the association between the second print media identifier and the content in the database such that the first print medium and the second print medium both enable future access to the content via respective first and second coded data, and the second print medium enables interactivity with interactive elements contained in said content via said second coded data.

2

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second coded data is indicative of a plurality of coordinate locations one the print medium surface.

3

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the printer module prints the second coded data in the format of the two-dimensional coordinate grid.

4

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second coded data is pre-printed on the second print medium prior to inserting the second print medium.

5

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the content in the database is indexed by the first print media identifier.

6

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the copy of the content is displayed on a display of the mobile telecommunications device.

7

7. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further including, determining the second print media identifier, from the second print medium, using the sensor module of the mobile telecommunications device, the second print medium having been inserted into the media feed path of the mobile telecommunications device.

8

8. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one interactive element has a linked object.

9

9. The method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the object is associated with a region of a print medium using the second coded data the linked object being stored in an object repository.

10

10. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein indicia can be added to the copy of the content during printing by using a keypad of the mobile telecommunications device.

11

11. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the content printed on the second print medium includes information that has been updated in the database compared with corresponding information included in the content on the first print medium.
